It was deeply satisfying to find expensive office supplies for cheap (saving at least $45 on address labels), and then at checkout I paid for a lady&#8217;s stuff for her kid when she didn&#8217;t have cash on hand [&#8230;]]]></description>

We earn money on the side to supplement our main incomes. We get a bit of income from Swagbucks, cash back sites (Rakuten, Mr.Rebates) and affiliate links to Bookshop [&#8230;]]]></description>
